Abstract: Provided are a system and method for informing of attachment positions of electrocardiogram (ECG) electrodes to improve the quality of ECG data. The system includes a judgment indicator extractor configured to extract a plurality of judgment indicator values from ECG data obtained through ECG electrodes, a reference value setter configured to, in a user-specific reference value setting mode, collect the judgment indicator values for a plurality of pieces of ECG data extracted by the judgment indicator extractor and set user-specific reference values for each judgment indicator, a similarity determiner configured to, in an ECG measurement mode, determine similarity by comparing a plurality of judgment indicator values extracted by the judgment indicator extractor with the user-specific reference values, and an electrode attachment position guide configured to inform a user of attachment positions of the ECG electrodes according to a similarity determination result of each of the judgment indicator values.

Abstract: A method and apparatus provides a service based on biometric information. A bioelectrical impedance of a user is measured at a first time point to obtain a first value representing biometric information of the user. At least one processor predicts the biometric information of the user at a third time point subsequent to the first time point to obtain a third value, based on the first value representing biometric information of the user at the first time point and a second value representing the biometric information at a second time point prior to the first time point. The processor calculates a difference between a fourth value representing a target related to the biometric information of the user, input by the user in advance, and the third value. Information regarding a health management service is output based on the difference between the fourth value and the third value.

Abstract: A pinion valve body and a vehicle pinion valve assembly with the valve body are disclosed. The pinion valve body has a lower sleeve integrally formed by a sintering process along with upper splines to block an oil leakage and thus there are no needs any more for the conventional separate lower sleeve as well as the associated machining of sleeve fitting areas on the valve body and the process of press-fitting such sleeve all together, thereby effectively reducing the general manufacturing steps and their cost.

Abstract: For detecting a wobble signal in a disc drive, at least one delay cell adjusts a phase relationship between first and second signals from a pickup of the disc drive, for minimizing a phase difference between the first and second signals. A subtractor generates the wobble signal from a difference between the first and second signals having the adjusted phase relationship such that high frequency noise is minimized in the wobble signal.
